The simplicity of a man should be decided by the life style he adopts. If you feel ashamed of doing something like manual work that you consider does not fit you stature your simplicity is pretentitious. Politicians must adopt simplicity as a way of life. The Indian democracy demands it. In the sovereign democratic country representatives of people must attempt to uphold people’s sovereignty. Simple men, who elected representatives, rejoice on seeing their representatives outclassing bureaucrats. When the West Bengal Finance Minister sat by the side of the TATA company chairman Ratan with the head inclining towards him he was ridiculed for reflecting an image, lower than the chairman. But behind the scene when they nobody see them they can do whatever they like it. At the public place people’s representatives when they are seen by all our Ministers and MLAs or MPs must behave as if there is none none above them. At the same par they must look and treat common people with love and care. After all why one casts vote. He wants to see his representative outclassing rivals in any field. They express jubilation when their representatives speak mesmerising the crowd. When a young MLA spoke an elderly person looks to him in the same manner parents looking to their young son playing the role of Lord Krishna in Ras Reela. When the young MLA performs superbly well in making speech the elderly crowd appreciate each other for making the right choice. They scurry their face with shame when the elected representatives are ridiculed by police officials or bureaucrats. But it happens in Manipur many of these elected representatives have started playing secondary role to the bureaucrats. We have heard bureaucrats openly ridiculing elected representatives. This is a sad phenomenon something we hate to see in a democratic country. Our elected leaders must assert and attempt to carry out all that they had promised on the eve of elections. In Delhi when a Union cabinet Minister addresses a press conference bureaucrat officers would flank and note down whatever uttered by the Minister. Ministerial assurance is a serious matter, but unless somebody notes it down and translates the assurances into action all assurances will go to vain. What happens in the state is that even the assurances given by the top executive is not strictly followed up by the bureaucrats. There are also other people who think their representative should focus on giving direct benefit to the common masses. They lament their representatives have forgotten to strengthen public distribution system. They want more outlets to come up to compete with the business sharks. Their simple complaint is they are very poor they cannot buy costly items sold by these malls. The state Government will have a long way to go to convince the masses. The common masses should be told what their representatives can do and what stands between the people’s expectation and the men at the helms of affairs. Until that happens our representative should continue to show simplicity. Learn to love lowliest guys. Only then you will shine in electoral politics.
